Indian History Along the Penobscot 

Tlie stor}' of the Indians in the state of Maine is ever 
interesting, Especi.iUy is that of tlie region of the Penob- 
s:ot valley. This race of men is the subject of pity as well 
as of hatred, hated for their cruelty, and pitied for their mis- 
fortune at the hands of their more civilized fellows, the Anglo 
Saxons. 

We of a later day can look upon this race in a spirit of 
greater fairness than could our ancestors whose \'ie\v of the 
red man was obscured by his late acts of rapine and plunder. 
As we read history lei us remember that the\' were struggling 
to retain their own domain, to defend their " Fatherland " 
against the acts of the aggressive pale face whose deeds of 
power we delight to honor. 



6 HISTORICAL 

TRIBES OF THE PENOBSCOT. 

Ill our brief sketch we cannot attempt to trace in full the 
descent of the Indion trifes of this region. It is unnecessary. 
We will begin by stating that the Indians of the state of Maine 
generally vveie divided into tlie following triDes : The Soko- 
kis, of the Saco river region; the Amasagunticooks or Abena- 
kis, of the Androscoggin and lower Kennebec region; the Cani- 
bas of the Norridgewock' region; and the Warenoc s, of the 
eastern part of Maine as now known. Of these the latter are 
to us most interesting. Another almost synonymous name 
for this tribe is the Etchemin tribe. Tiiis tribe however in- 
cluded the Indians to the extreme headwaters of the Penob- 
scot aiid the St. John river. This tribe is usually divided into 
three divisicns, viz: those on the St. John; those of the Pas- 
samaquoddy; and the Tarratines of the Penobscot, of whom 
we are most concerned. It is undoubtedly true that this tribe 
is the ancestor ot the present remnant, known as the Penob- 
scot tribe. This tribe claimed dominion over the entire 
F'enobscot valley from the headwaters to the sea. 

Concerning these Indians we here quote Mr. Williamson, 
as lollows : " They were a numerous, powerful and warlike 
people, more hardy and brave than their western enemies, 
whom they often plundered and killed, and according to Hub- 
bard and Price, kept tiie S\camores between the Piscataqua 
and the Mistic in perpetual fear. After the conquests and 
gloiy achieved in their battles with the Babshaba and his 
allies the>' were not, like their enemies, wasted by disease 
and famine. They retained their valor animated by success 
find strengthened by the early use and supply of tlrearmSj 



HISTOKICAL 7 

with which they were furnished by the French. The Tarra- 
tines ever manifested the greatest satisfaction in their inter- 
course witli the Frencli. No fortifications upon the peninsuhi 
of Major Biguyduce, or buildings in the vicinity, excited either 
fear or jealousy in them for no rising plantations of the French 
threatened them with the loss of their lands or privileges. A 
barter of their furs for guns, ammunition and trinkets was 
managed with a freedom and a directness which won and se- 
cured their attachments. Their companionacle mrpners and 
volatile turn made the bonds strong and lasting. The farra- 
tines have probably at different periods shifted the situation 
of their principal village. At the mouth of the Kenduskeag 
they had a common resting place when the white people first 
settled in that vicinity — a place to which they were from habit 
strongly attached. Here the mouldering relics of human 
bodies also flint spears, stone implements of labor, and Indians 
paint dust have been accidentally disinterred after a burial of 
an unknown period of time. The Tarratines were neutral m 
the war of the Revolution. In return .Massachusetts, of \\ hich 
this region was a part at that time, protected them and pro- 
hibited all trespass upon their lands six miles in width on each 
side of the Penobscot, from the head of tide upv\'ards. The 
state from time to time bought large tracts of land from them 
till their territory was greatly diminished in size. These 
Indians when they were first seen by the whites dwelt on 
both sides of the ri\er and in conjunction with the other tribes 
roamed the whole of the state of Maine to the westward of 
this region. That they wandered far from their Penobscot 
home is evident. One historian asserts that the chief Samo- 



8 HI.^TORICAL 

set who met the English at Plymouth with the words "Wel- 
come Englislimen" in their own tong'je was a Tarratine, and 
came from the Island ot Monhei^an. 



WARS OF THE TARRATINES. 

The Indian seemed to be fated to be the opponent of the 
Englishman ; in religion, and personal make up the English- 
man was at a very serious disadvantage as compared with the 
Frenchman with his vivacious ways, and his attractive and 
impressive religious services. It is probable that the most of 
the English had serious intentions and an honest purpose to 
deal justly with the red man. Their charters called for relig- 
ious training, forbade the sale of liquors to them and in every 
way enjoined their tiaining in the channels of civilization. 
But the Frenchman did all in his power to engender the spirit 
of animosity which was early started in the breast of the sa\'- 
age. Only one result could possibly be and that was war. 
But though the Indians were gradually drifting to hostilities 
they were hurled headlong into an open conflict by Wey- 
mouth's infamous seizure of five of their tribe in 1605. in 
1631 or 1632 there was an outbreak between the Tarratines 
and their rivals, but the conflict was not long prolonged nor 
bloody. The great v\ar vv ith the Mohawks about 1663 greatly 
discomforted the Varratiiies, their dreaded enemies following 
them even to the baiiks of the Penobscot, burning their dwell- 
ings, and doing great harm in accordance with Indian warfare. 
Soon small po.x devastated the tribe till it was almost exter- 



HISTORICAL 9 

minated. 

No furiher action in warfare was participated in by these 
Indians till the coming of Waj. Church in 1694, who laid waste 
tlu'ir fields and killed several of the natives, in 1722 Love- 
welTs war opened and lasted three years. Tlie war was thus 
named for Capt. Lovewell of Dunstable, the hero of the bat- 
tle of Pequaket. The warfare was carried to the Penobscot 
Valle}', and began at the arrival of Col. Thomas Westbrook in 
1723. This expedition was made up of two liundred thirty. 
They scurried the coast of Mt. Desert in whaling boats and 
small vessels, and then proceeded up the Penobscot, anchor- 
ing at Marsh Island, it is stated, on March 4 of that year. 
Here they left tlieir boats and began a fl\'e days march 
through the forests near the river. At the Old Indian Fort 
whicii the>' f jund deserted the company destroyed everything 
of \alue. It is stated that this foit was situated in Orono 
about .MX miles abox'e Kenduskeag. After the destruction of 
the buildings about the Fort the whites returned. About two 
N'ears later when the Tariatines had rebuilt the village, Capt. 
Joseph Heat'n with liis company crossed the country and 
attacked the village, laying it in ashes. No Indians were 
f(Hind. The \illage was ne\er rebuilt, Oldtown being the 
place finally settkd upon as their future abode. In October 
1723 a \essel lanciing at Mt. Desert, Capt. Cogswell com- 
manding, was attacked by the Indians, the whole crew being 
capture^!. The wars being o\-er the Indians returned to their 
usual custciT;s, h.uiiting and tithing. Graduall>', by treaty 
and by other lourses tlie English came into possession of the 
lands along the Penobscot. The Indians were greatly cheated 



10 HISTORICAL 

in these deals, but managed to retain possession of certain 
tracts, and to this day have control of a large number of 
Islands in the Penobscot. They also have a large sum in the 
hands of the state which is holden as a perpetual fund for 
their support on which the state pays interest annually. In 
all,tb,e Indian tribe receives not far from ;^8,ooo per year from 
different sources. The treatment of these Indians on the 
Penobscot bv the State of Maine is in marked contrast with 
that of Massachusetts when this whole region was a part of 
that commonwealth. Everything of practical value to them 
is done for their protection and benefit. 



Early Settlement. 

Cherry field, incorporated as a town February 9, 18 16, is 
situated in the southwestern part of Washington county. It 
is bounded on the north by the town of Deblois, on the south 
by Steuben and Milbridge, on the east by Columbia, and on 
the west by Steuben and township number ten. The ic,oo 
census gives its population 1850, number of polls 425, and the 
valuation of estates $518,671. 

Prior to the arrival of the whites, this region along the 
Narraguagus Valley was inhabited by the Redmen. A men- 
tion of this race always quickens the interest of the reader, if 
he be a student of the American History. This rough e.vterior 
race of the primeval forests, with its semi barbarous customs; 
cannot but be admired by us^ when we think of their endur- 



HISTORICAL 11 

ance, courage, and manly spirit. Few and simple were their 
laws, yet more generally observed than the numerous enact- 
ments of civilized nations, which fill many volumes of statue 
books. The early pioneers, in this section of our state got 
along peacefully at first with the Redman. But later hostili- 
ties occurred ; brought about partly by the settlers themselves; 
for the Indian was often deceived and cheated out of his rights 
by his better civilized neighbors. The knowledge that their 
hunting grounds would soon be overrun by the whites, the 
influence of the French, who were hostile to the English ; and 
the encouragement of their rebellious chieftains was an addi- 
tional cause for this race to enter into this controversy. We are 
aware that this race was fighting for home and existence. We 
know that they thought they were inflicting punishment upon 
the intruders, that was justly due. With these facts in mind, 
we cannot blame them for their part in these Indian wars; 
but, on the contrary, must sypmathize with them, the 
weaker race, knowing that it was for the interest of civiliza- 
tion that they should succumb to the stronger people. 

History gives us no occasions where our town suffered 
from direct attack in these wars. Nevertheless, the people 
were prepared for such an event ; for several block-houses 
w-ere constructed. This race along the Narraguagus River 
was a branch of the Passamaquoddy tribe. The point oppo- 
site the Baptist church was often called Indian point, because 
the Pedmen were accustomed to encamp there when on a 
hunting trip along the river. Of this once numerous tribe, 
there remains but a few relics, which have been dug up by 
t))e present generation, May the jndian name of our river^ 



12 HISTORICAL 

Narraguagus, ever remind us of these first settlers in our 
valley. 

The first white person to visit our tov/n and others along 
the Narragaugus river, were in all probability, fishermen. 
Prior to ijco, these sturdy men were prying all along the 
coast of Maine in pursuit of their occupation. It does not 
seem possible that this river, filled, as it were, with salmon 
and other species of fish, could have been overlooked by 
them, it was the custom of these early voyagers to remain 
abroad during the summer, but, when winter set in, to return 
again to their settled homes. Thus these fishermen were 
only visitors to the land along our coast. 

The first peimanent settlers in this section of Washington 
county were naturally induced to make their homes along the 
banks of the Narraguagus, in the valley bearing that name. 
The opportunities for fishing, and hunting were exceptionally 
good. Here, too, was valuable timberland ; and the power 
needed to fit it for use. These most favorable conditions 
must have been a powerful incentive to aid them when the 
burdens o*"' life seemed almost unbearable. Thus the history 
of these early settlers involves more or less the whole section 
of the Narraguagus valley ; but, because of lack of space, the 
writer must confine himself wholly to our pre'^ent town. 

In all probability, the first white settler in the town of 
Cherry field was Ichabod Willey. Mr. Willey came here from 
Dover, New Hampshire, in company with a Mr. John Dins- 
more ; who settled in what is now the town of Milbridge. 
The date of their arrival was in 1756. Soon after his arrival, 
Mr. Willey built a log house in the vicinity of the road, at the 



HISTOKICAL i;} 

upper corner of our villay;e, which turns towards the present 
Willey district. This road and district received its name from 
Mr. Willey and his children, who remained there with, and 
after him. Two years later, 1758, his son (Charles, came 
here from New Hampshire, and erected a cabin on this same 
road. Ichabod Wille\- was of English birth, and his wife, 
Elizabeth Bumford, was of Irish descerjt. To this illustrious 
couple were born eleven children: live sons, William, Lhabod, 
John, Charles and James ; and six daughters : Susan, Eliza- 
beth, Molly, Annie, Abigail and Jane. The youngest Jane, 
survived all her brothers and sisters and died about 1882, at 
the age of 96 years. Mr. and Mrs. WiHey both lived to be 
over 90 years of age. 

Samuel Colson, who came here about the same time as 
Mr. Willey, settled on the Hill where Nathan C. Tucker nov\- 
lives. Mr. Colson had eleven children, seven sons and four 
daughters. Many of his descendants live in the western part 
of our county. 

John Lawrence, an early settler, was of English descent. 
He and his wife came here from North Yarmouth, Maine, and 
settled at the upper corner of the town. Their only son John, 
married Jennie Rolfe, whose parents lived in the Intervale 
district near where the school house now stands. This young 
couple settled on the lot now in possession of the widow of the 
late Gilbert Sproul. 

Jeremiah Strout settled here prior to 17S3 on the land now 
in possession of Charles Torrey, Mrs. George Strout and 
Wilber G. Strout. His sons were Jeremiah and Nathaniel, 
twins, born in 1765. Nathaniel died at 18 years of age ;

HISTORICAL 



Jeremiah never married, and died an old man. The other 
children, three sons, Joseph, Hlisha, and Barna, t^vo daugh- 
ters, Priscilla and Polly were all united in marriage and left 
many children. 

The Campbell's are among the early settlers in town, and, 
to this name, the town owes much for its present industries. 
Gen. Alexander Campbell, the father of the lumber industry 
in town, with his wife and six children settled here about 
1772 or 1773, O'l tli^ site known as ship-yard point. Gen. 
Campbell's wife, Betse> Nickels was of hish descent, having 
come to this country when about six years old. 

Mr. Campbell himself was of Scotch parentage. To this 
couple were born nine children: James, Frances, Hannah, 
Peggy, Polly, William, Samuel, Alexander and Betsey, in 
1790 Mr. Campbell built and moved into the house now owlied 
by Fred 1. Campbell, Esq. Gen. Campbell was a noted man 
of his day ; and received marked honors both from the nation, 
state and his own townsmen. 

Capt. Josiah Tucker, an early settler, built a house and 
lived on the hill east of Mrs. Samuel Ray's residence. At one 
time school was kept in one room of this house. 

About 1760 two brothers, Thomas and Samuel Leighton, 
came from Falmouth, Maine, to this river; and settled on the 
Ridge road, on the lot owned by the late Richard P. Willey. 
Alexander Nickels came here at an early date, and built a 
house on the site of Mr. F. S. Wilson's residence. Mr. 
Nickels was associated with Gen. Campbell in the mill busi- 
ness. 

Other early settlers were: Fhomos Archibald, who built 



HISTORICAL 15 

the house now in possession of E. E. Adams; Amaziuh Kicker, 
whose homestead was the one now owned by the tliree sis- 
ters, Misses S. J. Ricker, A. W. Ricker and Mrs. Caroline A. 
Emery; Gowin Wilson, Shubael Hinkley, early settlers on 
the Intervale; and man>' others whose names space will not 
permit to be mentioned. 

The town increased in numbers very slowly at first. The 
Indian wars had much to do with this. In 1812 there were 
but a very few houses in our present village. Probably not 
over twelve in number. In 1807 but 30 votes were cast at a 
plantation meeting. The first school house was not erected 
until 1816, nor the first meeting house before 1827. The 
early settling of our town was but a struggle for existence. 

The first physician in town was Dr. Benjamin Alline, who 
settled a little bebw our piesent village. He was followed in 
order by Dr. Samuel B. Merrill, Wm. Wentworth and Tristram 
Redman. 

The earliest lawyer in town was the father of our present 
estimable citizen, VVm. Freeman Esq., Mr. Freeman, him- 
self, practised law as early as 1845. 

The first post-office was in the old Adam's house, now 
occupied by E. E. Adams. The first post-master was probab- 
ly Col. Joseph Adams. 

Among the earlier merchants we have the names Lewis 
Nickels, A. Campbell & Co., J. W. Coffin, A. L. Stewart, 
Wm. M. Nash, G. R. Campbell & Co., Charles P. Nickels, 
O. C. Ward and many others. Of this number many are 
still in the business, in town. 

Among the oldest houses now standing are the one's 



16 HISTORICAL 

now in possession of Fred 1. Campbell Esq., E. E. Adams and 
the Misses S. J and A. W. Ricker, and Mrs. Caroline A. 
Emery, Mr. Campbell's house \vas erected by Gen. Alex- 
ander Campbell in 1790; Mr. Adams house was built by 
Thomas Archibald, a mill owner. The Ricker homestead was 
the home of Amaziah Ricker, who came here from Parson- 
field and built this house about the year 1802, Mr. Ricker's 
blacksmith shop stood near his house. The first Masonic 
Lodge in town was organized in this building. Thus, from 
this small beginning we have our present prosperous town and 
beautiful village. The growth has been one of gradual ad- 
vancement until today this town needs no introduction to the 
public, it ranks high, in many phases of the word. Beauti- 
ful buildings adorn its surroundmgs, lighted by electricity. 
Every contrivance is present for the safety and pleasure of 
its citizens. 



Incoporation. 

Cherryfield, prior to its incorporation, Feb. 9, 1816; was 
known as township number 11; and that point lying south of 
the mills on the forest or lower dam, was called by it's In- 
dian name Narraguagus; to distmguish it from the settlement 
in the southern part of the valley. What is now the town of 
Milbridge was, until 1848, a part of Harrington. Hariington, 
before it's incoporation, 1791, wa.s united with to\\ nship num- 
ber II (Cl'ierryfield). That is to say; the_\' held their planta- 



HISTOB[CAL 17 

tion meetings, and kept their records as one organization. 
Thus, these tiiree towns, Milbridge, Harrington and 
Cherryfield, except a north-east part of Steuben wliicli was 
annexed to it in 1828; were at one time one organization. 

The first town meeting met Marcli 21st at the home of 
Joseph Adams Esq., and ilie following officials were chosen: 

Moderator, Thompson Lewis; clerl<, Joseph Adams, select- 
men, Thompson Lewis, G. Wilson, Joseph Adams; treasurer, 
blisha Small; constable, Thomas Archer. 

Voted: $200 for highways and $Gj on county road. 

Voted: That the selectmen appoint a committee to lay out 
a road from Joseph Small's new place in Cherryfield to 
tlie town line of Steuben. 

The meeting adjourned atone u'ciock p. m. 

The name chosen for this town was very appropriate at 
that cime, Cherryfield, or field of cherries, was so called 
because of the abundarce of rt-d, wild cherries which com- 
pletely covered tlie shores along the banks of the Narragua- 
gus river. It was often called by it's Indian name, Narragua- 
gus,v\hich clung to its post-office many years after the town's 
incoporation. 

The following are a few early transactions taken from the 
town's books: 

1807 a meeting of the plantati(jn was held, and ^o \'otes 
were cast against the separation of the district of Maine from 
the commonwealth of Massachusetts; and f>\^o was raised for 
highways. 

1808, N'ott'd $50 for siiu)')l and $50 f(jr liighways and 
briJiiCb. 



18 HISTORICAL 

18C9, V'oted that all delinquent taxes be used to improve 
the hi;^hvvays and $100 of this be expended in erecting a 
bridge over the Narraguagus river, below the mill then owned 
by Ihomas Archibald. This bridge was futher improved in 
1810 b>' an additional expenditure of $50. 

1814, Voted Thomas Archer $4 for services as collector of 
taxes for that year. 

1816, Voted to build a school-house 20x24 ^^- ^11""-^ t'l^ same 
be paiii fur in lumber. This liouse was to be erected on the 
north-east corner of Mr. Charles Willey's land, as he agreed 
to the same in town meeting. The highest vote recorded in 
this meeting was ^,4. 

1 8 19, at a legal meeting held to consider tlie constitution 
forn.e.i lor the sfatc^ ot Maine; 14 votes were cast for it's adop- 
tion, 2 against. 

1824 Voted $Coo for highways, $125 for support of schools 
and $75 lor ihe towel's poor. 

1827, Voted $1200 for liiglnvays, $25 for town charges and 
$200 for a minister. 

1830, Voted $2GO for schools, $150 for the support of the 
ministrv and $300 to build a bridge. 

1835, Voted $ioco for highways and $200 for the town's 
poor. 

1840. \'oted s6oo for highways, $300 for town's poor and 
six cents in addition to what tlie law allows for primary 
schools. It was also \'oted at this meeting that each school 
district should choose the.r school agent. 

1845. Voted $1,000 for schools, $400 for the town's poor, 
and $1,300 for roads and bridges.

Church History. 

Our early pioneers were a God-fearing people. In no 
case were they negligent in providing for the worship ot the 



HISTOEICAL 21 

Divine. They did not iiave costly edifices in wliicii to wor- 
ship, nor fine roads on which to travel. Yet they always 
found a place in which to assemble, and a way to get there 
at an allotted time. They made the most of their meager 
privileges. Would that we, the present generation, should 
make the most of ours. 

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH. 

Prior to 1796 there was no Religious Society in town, al- 
though there were many Christians here and meetings were 
frequently held. The people supported preaciiing and among 
their earlier ministers of the Gospel was Elder Snow of 
Thomaston. 

At this time (1796) there existed a Baptist church in 
Columbia, whose pastor was Elder Joshua Young. Under 
his leadership a revival occurred in that circuit, and spread to 
this town. In the autumn of this same year, Mr. Young came 
here and organized a society. In April, six were baptised by 
him, and a church conference was established by the people 
in July. 

Thus the Baptist society was organized September 16, 
1796. Thetovsn, in all probability, supported this church in 
its infancy. They were too few in numbers to do all that 
their hearts desired. The first meetings were held in dwelling 
houses for the people were too poor to erect a church. Dur- 
ing these years and for many years after, the town voted 
money for the support of the ministry. 

In 1816 a small school house 20x24 feet was built by the 



22 HISTORICAL 

town, and this was used until 1828 by this society for a house 
of worship. In 1827 tiie growth of the society made it possi- 
ble to erect a meeting house. The lot for this building was 
donated by Dr. Samuel B. Merrill of Cherrytleld. This 
church was dedicated in J828, and stood near the site of the 
present church. 

In 1872-73, this first church was torn down and a new one 
erected in its place. The estimate value of this second church 
was $1700. This building was a pew holders church, and 
was erected by them, together with the liberal donations of 
Mr. David W. Campbell, At its completion this house was 
styled as one of the best in the county. This structure was 
destroyed by tire December 10, 1903. 

In January 1904 this society reorganized itself into a legal 
bod\'. 

Today this society has under construction a new house of 
worship, estimate cost of which will be $10,000. This build- 
ing will be erected by independent subscriptions, and money 
received from the will of Amasa Willey. This church, when 
completed will be modeled after the later improvements in 
architecture. The present pastor, Brown E. Smith, is a very 
energetic. Christian worker. This society is in a prosp?rous 
condition with, a membership of 136.

FIRST CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH 

The First Congregational Church of Cherry field was or- 
ganized with 6 members, Oct. 30, 1833, by the Rev. Eiisha 
Kellogg of the American Home TAissionary Society. 

The first pastor was Rev. Horatio llsley, who came here 
and was ordained in 1837. Mr. llsley was succeeded in 1849 
by Rev. Philip Titcomb, who remained with the people until 
1852. 

From 1852 to 1870 the church was without a settled pastor 
but the society was occasionally supplied by outside mission- 
aries and its members assisted in the support of the other 
churches- in town. 

In 1870 the church receive I t'le service, of R^v. Jimes B. 
Taylor, a student from Yale Divinity school and the Rev. Mr. 
Holyoke of tlie Bangor Theological Seminary. 

In 1878 this cluirch witnessed a remirkable revival in J it> 
members began a reorganization of the society. This was 
accomplished under the direction of Rev. AJJison Blanchard, 
state mission iry and "Father T^nny" of Blls.vorth. At thi-; 
time, July 21, 1878; twenty new m.^mbers w.^re enrolled. 
During this year and tht. one following (1879) Rev. Sewall 
Tenney and Rev, H. F. Harding were pastors of this church. 
During Mr. Harding's pastorate and under his leadership a 
Congregational society was organized at Steuben. 



24 HISTOETCAL 

The Rev. E. M. Cousins served the uhurth from 1880 to 
1883. 't was during his stay that t'le people began to make 
preparations for the erection of their present neat house of 
worship. This was completed and dedicated in 1885. 

From 1885 to 1891 this society was supplied during the 
summer months by students from Yale. 

In 1891, Rev. Dorr A. Hudson accepted a call to this pas- 
torate. He was ordained Sept. 9, 1891, and remained only 
one year because of failing health. 

Mr. Hudson was followed by Rev. E. L. Hunt, it was dur- 
ing his stay that the society made extended repairs upon their 
house of worsliip. 

The Rev. Herbert E. Lombard was the next pastor to 
officiate over this society. He was succeeded by Rev. A. L. 
Golder. 

To day, this cliurch is in a prosperous condition with a 
membership of 42. The value of the church property is about 
$2500. 



CATHOLIC CHURCH. 

The first Catholic clergyman to officiate over this denomi- 
nation in town was Father Midden, wlio visited the mission 
at accustomed times and taught the people as they assembled 
in some dwelling house. Some probably attended divine ser- 
vice, occasionally, at Ellsworth or Machias. 

In 1864 the growth of this society made it possible to erect 
its present beautiful house of worship. 



HISTORICAL 25 

Today, this church numbers approximately 150 souls. 
Mass is said every fourth Sunday witli Father O'Brien of 
Ellswortli or his assistant officiating. This society supports a 
t!iri\ing Sunda}' school. The estimated \'alue of its property 
is $3000. 



Educational Account. 

We cannot do better tiian to cast a glance toward the 
typical common school as known in Maine in the early days. 
Even as soon as our forefathers, almost invariably of Puritan 
extraction, had located themselves in the forests of the Pine 
Tree State and began their efforts of erecting churches, they 
made provision for the common school. They in common 
with us today considered education tlie bulwark of our insti- 
tutions, the institutions for the establishment of which they 
had fought and bled. They knew therefore, better than we, 
how much depended upon the proper guidance of the newly 
established government. They saw their liberties and prop- 
ert>', we had almiost said wrapt up in the future of the new 
government which Washington had said was "one today and 
thirteen tomorrow." Is it a strange thing that these people 
who so well understood the significance of these trying.years, 
should so thoroughly grasp at the thought that in the educa- 
t on of the masses lay their only hope of ultimate success? 
No, they saw well their duty, and as pioneers prepared to 
meet it. A room in the little log cabin became the university 



•26 HISTORICAL 

of the wilderness and humble as was this fust effort, mighty 
results came from it. From out of these rough, low-roofed 
structures walked men who were yet to meet the representa- 
tives of the courts of Europe, in the battlefield, in diplomacy, 
and in scores of other capacities from which they were 
emerged unscathed. Tliis system of education went on till it 
almost became a necessary thing for a man to reach the 
president's chair that he be able to present a carter begun in 
"The Little Red Schooihouse" in the backwoods hamlet. It 
was not that the people loved wealth and culture less, but 
that they loved the more the homely virtues inspired by the 
healthy atmosphere of the country. As we look back today 
over the progress of our school system we dwell with pride 
upon the record it has made. But this system like all others, 
was expected to advance, and it has advanced. The town of 
Cherryfield has, in common with other towns, reared the 
homely structures on the hillsides and at the cross roads, 
hired male teachers at $io to $15 per month and female teach- 
ers at 75 t-cnts to $1.50 a week, and this with the "board 
round" provision. 

The school history of the present town of Cherrvfield 
covers a long and interesting period. As a whole we are 
proud of the record that is handed down. Her representatives 
who have entered \arious phases of work in different fields, 
speak well for their native town. Under the government of 
Massachusetts, each town was required by law to maintain 
free schools for the education of its youth. Our town, be- 
cause of its financial straits and fewness in number, did not 
always meet this requirement. 



HISTOKICAL 27 

Whfn the first provision was made by the town for 
schools, we do not know. As early as 1808. $50 was raised 
towards their support. Tiiese first schools were doubtless 
kept ill dwelling houses, and the preacher may have taught 
them for in those days that was considered a part of his duty. 
The town records speak of a school being kept in one room of 
the home of Josiah Tucker, whose house stood a little east of 
Mrs. Samuel Ray's residence, it was not unt'I 1816 that a 
school house was erected. This buildinj^ was 20x24 feet and 
was to be paid for in lumber, and to be located on land then 
owned by Charles Willey, in the Willey district. Other 
early school houses stood near the upper corner on the hill, 
just across the railroad track, and at the lower corner in the 
vicinity of the residence of Frank Campbell. 

Today the school privileges of Cherryfield are of the best. 
The scnools are graded and consist of an Academy, Grammar 
school, three intermediate schools, one Grammar grade and 
five district schools. The town employs superior teachers, 
many of whom are Normal graduates. The superintendent, 
Frances Campbell Jewett, a graduate of Wellesley '84, is an 
energetic worker in their behalf. 

ACADEMY. 

Cherryfield can boast of as fine an institution of higher 
learning, where her sons and daughters may fit for more ad- 
\anced courses of study, as any other town of its size in the 
state, 

February 19, 1829 is the date of the founding of this in* 



28 HISTORICAL 

stitiition. During the first ten years of its existence, the ses- 
sions were held in an old meeting house. Later, the school 
met in a Lyceum Hall and other quarters. 

In 1850 the present two stor)' structure was erected. The 
lower half was used for school purposes and the upper half for 
a town hall and public entertainments. 

From 1872 to 1895 this institution was ccuiducted as a free 
high school but on April 15, 1895; by an act passed in the 
Legislature, this school was again placed in the Academy 
column. 

To day, this institution is under the control of a board of 
Trustees, its graduation certificate admits to three of our 
Maine Colleges. The school has been lately favored in the 
will of the town's deceased citizen, Amasa Wiiley. in this 
provision, the student receiving the highest rank upon grad- 
uation is presented with a gold medal. Mr. A. G. Averill, a 
graduate of Colby College, is the principal, Miss L. L. Parker, 
a graduate of Bates, assistant. 

This institution, although in its infancy, gives promise of 
a very useful career. Those who have it in charge are doing 
everything possible to make it one of the best in its class. 



Military Matters. 

The town of Cherryfield is justly entitled to the high es- 
teem of the state and nation for her loyal support of the gov- 
erment in military matters. Whenever the call to arms has 
sounded, she has been among the first to respond to its ap-

in tiie svar for Independence, the town did its wliole duty 
in tiie stirring events of that period. Tiie size of tlie planta- 
tion made tiie number vvlio enlisted b.it a few but of these 
are found manv who were promoted to high rank because of 
bravery. 

In July, 1812 at a legal meeting of the plantation, tlie set- 
tlers made preparations for defense in asking the Common- 
wealth of Massachusetts for arms and ammunition. In this 
request thev state their condition and situation. This docu- 
ment was signed by John Archer and Joseph Adams, asses- 
sors. 

WAR OF THE REBELLION. 

In this struggle for national unity the town of Cherry field 
played a prominent part. Ever ready was she to raise money 
and to send her sons to the front. Too much praise cannot 
be given to those true and patriotic men who enlisted and 
served in the struggle for national union. 

In 1862 the town voted a bounty to those persons enlisting 
to make up its quota of men under President Lincoln's call for 
300,000 volunteers for lervice in the army of the United 
States. A sum of money was also raised for the families of 



80 HISTORICAL 

such men as should respond to this call. The selectmen were 
ordered to open a recruiting office to receive the names of 
those who wished to enlist. 

Two companies were formed in town, with recruits from 
this and the neighboring vicinity. The first company, com- 
manded by Hiram Burnham, was assigned to the 6th Maine, 
The second company, commanded by Robert Campbell, was 
assigned to the nth Maine. Capt. Burnham was promoted 
to the rank of General, Capt. Campbell to that of Lieutenant, 
Henry Adams to Major and many others to the rank of Cap- 
tain, it is said that 54 men weie enlisted in town in two 
hours, probably equaling any record of its kind in the state. 

In memory of those brave soldiers who left this town and 
fell upon the battle-field or died from disease or wounds re- 
ceived in the services, the town on July 4, 1876, erected a 
fitting Monument. On this is inscribed their names, 54 in

Industrial Account. 

The town of Cherryfield, owing to its situation, has 
always been interested in manufacturing industries. For the 
first few years farming and fishing were the chief industries, 
but later the manufacture of lumber and shipbuilding came to 
the front. This was but natural, for, with valuable timber- 
land at hand, and the Narraguagus ri\er, with two exception^ 
the best water power in Washington county to utilize it, the 
people's minds would be guided in this channel. This lumber 
industry has made the town what it is toda)-, and we foretell 
an even more prosperous future. Surely this prediction must 
come true, if her bountiful resources are utilized to their fullest 
extent. 

I his river which flows through our town, once abounded 
with salmon and other species of fish. Various stories are 
told of their countless numbers. Thus, the early settlers on 
its banks improved their opportunity and turned their hand to 
the fij-hing industry. This occupation, together with farming 
and hunting, gave them their livelihood. The fish secured 
was shipped to outside ports. At one time the town sold to 
the highest bidder the right to fish the river for three days. 
The other four were close time, and anyone violating this rule 
was punished by a fin •, 



K78TOR1CAL M 

in tliese early days shingles and pine boards were "legal 
tender" and were exchanged with the merchant for rum^ 
molasses, and other merchandise, in this way the teacher 
and preacher were rewarded for their services. 

The earliest mills in town were, in all probability, "grist 
mills." These were a necessity in these days, when the 
farmer prepared his own flour. Many are the stories told of 
the long and wf ary journeys taken by these early settlers to 
reach these rude preparing plants. Many of these early mills 
were erected by syndicates of farmers who reckoned the 
shares by the day. That is: one man might own a week, 
while another owned two days. Each shareholder was under 
obligation to run the mill when his turn came for as many 
days as he owned shares. 

Information does not furnish us with the names of tiiese 
early mill owners. Ichabod Willey, the first settler, was a 
wheelwright, and may have built the first mill, but we have 
no positive proof of this. 

Gen. Alexander Campbell was the first extensive mill 
owner and manufacturer on the river. He is often styled the 
"father" of the lumber industry of our town. Mr. Campbell 
first carried on his lumber operations in Tunk but, finding it 
so expensive getting his lumber to market he decided to come 
here, where he could rait the lumber to the vessels that were 
to take it away. After taking counsel with Ichabod Willey 
and others of large experience, he built a dam and a tide mill 
near the old shipyard, the present site of Wm. Nash & Sons' 
landing. This mill was erected in approximately 1800. Mr. 
Alexander Nickels was associated with IV^r. Campbell in tfiis 



first mill. 

In the phintation records of i8oq, it was voted to build a 
bridge loelovv Thomas Archibald's mill, which implies that ,V\r. 
Archicald was an early mill operator. 

In 1836 a New York company came here and erected mills 
where Wm. Nash & Sons' main mill now stands. About this 
same time A. Campbell & Co., and others constructed mills 
at Still Water. 

In 1850, or thereabouts, Wm. Freeman, Esq., an esteemed 
citizen now in town, began his lumber operations along the 
river. He invested largely in timber lands in Cherryfield 
and vicinity, and constructed dams and erected saw and 
othfr m'lls on the river. Mr. Freeman continued in his lum- 
ber opt-ralions until i860. 

SHIPBUILDING. 

The lumber manufactured along the river was sliipped to 
outside parties, and this must be done in vessels, and vessels 
must be built. Thus the natural course of events brought 
about the shipbuilding industry in town. 

At one time these vessels were built on both sides of the 
river, that is to say, the earliest shipyard was on the west 
^ide and the more later ones on the east. These shipyards 
were owne.1 or operated by N. Hinkney, Jewell Hinkney, 
Samuel and Barnard Strout, William Nickels. Amos Dyer, C. 
Small. Talbot Smith, A. Campbell & Co., G. R. Campbell & 
Co., and others. The vessels built were usually about 800 
to i^QO tonnage. Probably one of the largest ever constructed 



HTSTORTCATi 37 

on the river was the vessel, "Kate Foster," built by Jewell 
Hinkney. Amos Dyer constructed two vessels, named the 
"Robin" and "Belgrade;" the former received its name from 
the fact that a bird, a robin, built her nest in the vessel's 
timbers while she was under construction, and unmolested by 
the men, there hatched her young ; the latter, a full rigged 
bark, carried a company of 56 miners around Cape Horn to 
California, Among this number was the name Amasa Willey 
whose benevolent gifts the town has so lately received. 
This vessel received its name in honor of one of their num- 
ber who was a Belgrade man. The last ship built on the 
river was constructed by G. R. Campbell & Co., in 1892. 

Of this once most prosperous and extensive industry 
along the river, there remains but the site of the old ship- 
yards. 

PRESENT INDUSTRIES. 

Wm. M. Nash & Sons, a lumber firm. This business is 
the outgrowth of the property once operated by J. W. Coffin, 
and known as the "New York Mill Concern," of which Mr. 
Nash became an active associate in 1865, and finally pur- 
chased in 1885. 'Vlr. Wm. M. Nash is the senior member of 
the firm, having admitted in 1890 his two sons, J. W. M., and 
Frank C. Nash. This property is in good condition, consist- 
ing of a saw and lathe mill. The lumber manufactured is 
lighted to Milbridge and from thence shipped in vessels to 
outside markets. The firm owns numerous stoie-houses. 
Thirty to fift__v men and twelve or more team^J are u-^us^Ilv 
employed, 



38 HISTORICAL 

G. R. Campbell & Co., a lumber firm, consists of 
Messrs. Gleason R., Samuel N. and Charles Campbell. This 
business was formerly operated by A. Campbell & Co., who 
were succeeded in 1865 by the present operators. The prin- 
cipal business of this concern is the manufacture of long and 
short lumber. The firm owns and operates two saw mills, a 
stave and shingle mill, and a grist mill. These lumber mills 
have an annual output of from four to six million feet. This 
lumber is transported to Milbridge, from thence it is shipped 
to Boston, New York and southern ports. One-half mile (-f 
river frontage is owneJ by this con: rn for storage. Approxi- 
mately 50 men and 12 teams are empl-iyed. 

E. K. Wilson, box and shook factory and planing mill 
operator, has a plant situated on th« west bank of the Narra- 
guagus river near the covered bridge. The plant comprises a 
two story building, 40x100 feet, eqiipped with all the latest 
modern machinery for its operation. On the second floor, 
the shooks after being sawed into proper lengths and groved, 
are put together, and the boxes thus manufactured are dis- 
posed of to local blueberry packers and sardine manufacturers. 
This mill requires 600,000 feet of lumber annually. Twelve 
to (ifteen hands are employed. 

O. C. Ward operates the property formerly owned by 
Charles P. Nickels, consisting of a sau', shingle and stave 
mill. Mr. Ward is also an extensive buyer and shipper of 
eggs, wool, and blueberries in their season.. 

A. L. Stewart & Sons, lumbemM, huyers of eggs ai-\d 
blueberry dealers, carry on an extensive industry in town. 
Jhey have lately bought in conjunction with Jasper Wyman, 



HISTORICAL 39 

the box-shingle mill lately owned by Wm, M. Nash & Sons. 
This firm is the pioneer of the blueberry canning business, 
having engaged therein for over forty years. They own and 
control extensive blueberry lands, and their factory, which is 
operated by steam power, employs approximately 25 hands. 

Jasper Wyman, a lumber manufacturer and blueberry 
canner, in conjunction with others, furnishes employment to 
many townsmen. He has lately secured in partnership with 
Mr. A. L. Stewart the box shingle mill formerly owned and 
operated by Wm. M. Nash & Sons. The blueberry business 
is carried on by him and others under the firm name of the J. 
& E. A. Wyman Co. This canning factory employs many 
hands. 

A. M. Mathews, carries on an extensive blueberry busi- 
ness, shipping annually many cases to all parts of New 
England. Mr. Mathews also buys and sells cord wood and 
hoop poles.

Jonesport and Harrington. Later Mr. Lewis started the 
publication known as the Jonesport Enterprise. The printing 
plant was fust situated in the old hotel opposite G. R. Camp- 
bell & Go's store, known as the Narraguagus block. Here 
job printing was carried on with five hands employed. Mr. 
Lewis operated this paper successfully for eight years. 

In August 1904, the present editor, Herbert G. Libby, as- 
sumed charge of this publication. His plant, situated in the 
building formally occupied by the Washington Glothing com- 
pany, is one of the best equipped in Washington county. 

Job printing of all kind is carried on. Nine persons are 
employed in Gherryfield besides local editors in other towns. 

Mr. Libby, who is a graduate of Harvard, is interested in 
other newspaper property in the state and is planning to en- 
large his plant at Cherryfield and take on other publications. 
He is also working with other corporations to advance the 
agricultural interest in our county. 



THE WEST WASHINGTON AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. 

The West Washington Agricultural Society was instituted 
in 1856 at Columbia Falls, where its first exhibition was held. 
Its second meeting was at Jonesboro, followed by two at 
Machias. Since i860 it has always met at Cherryfield and 
on the Park Association grounds, since 1886, 

The. association grounds are an ideal place for Agricultural 
Fairs, comprising an area of 20 acres, they are sitiiated upor]

an eminence overlooking the Narragjagus river. Upon this 
location numerous buildings have been constructed for the 
shelter of all exhibits. Here too is one of the fastest half-mile 
tracks in this section of the state. A grandstand, with a seat- 
ing capacity of 800 and a judges stand overlook this track. In 
short everything needed to make this fair a success can be 
found here during its sessions in September. 

Present directors are: David W. Campbell, Cherryfield; 
J. C. Strout, Milbridge; T. W. Look, Addison; H. J. Leighton, 
Columbia; and E. C. Drisko, Jonesboro. 



PUBLIC LIBRARY. 

"Read good books first for you will not get a chance to 
read them all", is the sentiment of this institution wherever 
it is established. The present library in town was instituted 
in 1837 and its founders were: Louisa Upton, Eliza Nickels, 
Mary Upton and Elizabeth Kingsley. This library was started 
and supported in its infancy by independent subscriptions and 
public entertainments, its first librarian was Mrs. Mary L. 
Upton, in 1898, through the efforts of the womans league, 
the town took the library in charge, thus making it a public 
institution. 

Today this library contains over i.ooochoice volumes and 
is situated in a neat room in the building occupied by Dr. Van 
Wart's drug store. New books are being added each year. 
The present librarian is Mrs. Mary L.Wakefield. The town's 
people take great pride in this institution and expect in tjie

near future to own a building for its use. Present trustees 
are: L. C. Haycock, Pres., Mrs. G. A. Campbell, Mrs. E. D, 
MilliUen, Miss Rebecca Burnbam, Mrs. M A. Wakefield, Mrs, 
H. T. Dunbar and Miss Abbie Ricker. 



CHERRYFIELD BAND. 

The Cherryfield band is one of the oldest musical organiza- 
tions in our state, it was organized in 1869 by G. E. Church 
who for the three years following acted as its manager and 
leader. On Jan. 3, 1873 the band was organized and a con- 
stitution adopted. At that date, W. M. Eaton was chosen 
director; W. C. Ricker, leader; and L. Wasgatt, secretary 
and treasurer. The next leader of the band was E. C. 
Wakefield who was elected in 1875 and served in that capacity 
until 1891. From 1891 to the present time, the band has had 
as its leaders the following: N. A. Bartlett, G. S, McLaughlin, 
S, E. Wakefield and Frank Wakefield. 

This organization has always been one;of the best in this 
state, having played in all sections of the county and at band 
tournaments. Last summer (1904) the band had twenty en- 
gagements. This organization owns its own uniforms, instru- 
ments, music etc. The present leader, F. A. Wakefield, 
joined the band 1885. The following are its present mem- 
bers: Howard Foster, first cornet; Harry Sproul, second cor- 
net; Robert Wainwright, clarionet; Leonard Farnsworth, first

ELECTRIC LIGHT COMPANY 

The town of Cherryfield is an up-to-date town on the 
"light" question. The present plant was installed about 
twenty years ago. It was first operated by a storage battery 
which, because of its inefl^iciency, was finally abandoned and 
the plant was moved to its present location, where it was 
operated by water power. Its equipment then comprised a 
650 light dynamo. Later its power was further strengthened 
by the addition of a 75 horse-power engine and boiler. iThis 
company has, at the present time, over four miles of strung 
wire, and approximately 600 lights in use. The present 
officers are: Frank C. .Nash, President; D. W. Campbell, 
Treasurer; E. S. Nash, Electrician.

ranged in families where that arrangement has been possible, 
in these families, in addition to the resident living members, 
the names of the non-resident members are included. It 
should be borne in mind that this plan does not include the 
names of all former residents of this town, as the names of 
the non-residents appear only when one or both of the parents 
are still living in the town. After the name of each non- 
resident will be found the present address, when such address 
has been given to us. Non-residents are indicated by the 
star (*). 

When a daughter in a family has married, her name taken 
in marriage appears after her given name, in parenthesis, the

penter — car; railroad service — R. R. ser; student, a member 
of an advanced institution of learning — stu; pupil, a member 
of a lower grade of schools (including all who have reached
